might learn a lesson of humility and
modesty from tho Japanese people. To
illustrate this Japanese modesty, he re
lated jus experience in being one of a
party of Nebraskans some years ago tq
escort a commission of educated Japanese
through the state. He spoke at one of
the meetings and boasted of tho wealth
and productive power of America. That
night at a banquet one of the men ac
ocmpanylng the Japanese commission
throughout the country, said he had
heard eighty-four speeches on tho tour
and the Americans had Invariably boasted
to the Japanose -the 'wealth "and power

shop at TOSH, owned by an Italian who
had formerly been a bootblack. The win
dows were broken.
' Chief Froom Qetu Ilnay.
The mob went west on Broadway until
North Eighth atroet was reached and
then sat off with the Intention of wreck
ing and burning all of the Italian board
ing houses in that section.
Chief of Police Froom and a squad of
officers got In ahead of the rioters and
told them the first man who hurled a
brick' or attempted to set fire would bo
shot. This dissuaded the leaders', or
those who were ahead, and they con
tinued their way to the Northwestern
roundhouse. Stragglers in the rear, how
ever, broke the windows of several houses
supposed to bo the abode of Italian
laborers.
The men carrying cans of coal oil had,
however, been swept along with the riot
ers ahead and no fires were set. At the
roundhouse Chief Froom lined up the
rioters and talked to them, and they
agreed to disperse. They chased away
from tho building one old Italian man
who had been thero many years and a
15-year-old boy. '
When the mob scattered many of its
members became 'thieves and thugs.
One. party broke Into a bunk car In
the Northwestern yards where several
Italian track laborers had been sleeping.
All of the Inmates got away except one
old man, Loulo Thoma, a Greek. He wau
shot at several times and wounded In tho
foot so he could not run, Members of th
mob then robbed 1dm of 35? and left, after
beating him Into insensibility.
Another gang visited a little shanty
whora an old Bohemian laborer lived. He
was asleep when his door was broken In
He was dragged into the yard and beaten
until unconscious. Then his little home
was completely wrecked. In ripping up
the mattress of his bed the robbers found
$157, which they took.
Public Must Foot 11111.
Council Bluffs and Ppttawattamle
county will have to pay tho greater part.
If not all, of the thousands of dollars of
damage. A clauso In tho plate glass ln
eunranco policies specifically says the
companies wilt not be liable- for damagb
caused by riots or ffres, so not a cent of
tho damage will fall upon the Insurance
companies. This and the damage to tho
buildings will come from the pockets 'of
the taxpayers. ,
Indemnity for all of the losses sus
tained by the Greeks and Italians who
were not naturalised cltlsens will be
guaranteed by the United States govern
ment. Antonio Venuto, Italian consular
agent at Omaha, spent most of the day
In Council Bluffs yesterday engaged in
taking accounts of tho damages and hear-
Ing the testimony of the victims. The
Greek consular agent has also taken up
the matter and will press all claims.
Tho attack on tho Greeks, it Is said,
was led and inspired by men from South
Omaha.
Mrs. Blrblllls was In the Pearl street
parlors when the mob appeared and nar
rowly escaped being badly Injured by
tho flying glass and paving blocks. She
was sitting near the cash register. Her
husband said last evening that she was In
a serious nervous condition.
Omshn Greeks Are Losers.
According to Tom Zees, proprietor of
the Omaha candy kitchen, the damages
to property caused by the riot of Thurs
day .night in Council Bluffs will amount
to mow. Tom, with his brother, Bill,
who now owns a bJkery at 711 West
Broadway, Council Bluffs, was also in the
riot in South Omaha, and have a $100,000
suit pending In the United States court.
Among the heaviest losers In Council
Bluffs were Dill Zees, who runs the
French bakery; Gorge Zees' shining par
lor and Blrblllls, who owns a confection
ery store called the Palaco sweet shop.
Most of the stores which were wrecked
are still closed and at present have no
idea when they will open.
Many of tho Omaha Grtoks are very
angry over the Council -Bluffs affair, the
reason being that tho man that murdered
Fireman Jones In Council Bluffs waa an
Italian and not a Greek. They have ap
peoled to thq -Greek consul at Wash
ington, h r
Gran 1 fifrf to Investigate. !
At Council Bluffs yesterday Judge
Wheeler ordered the convening of a spe
cial session of tho grand Jury at 9 o'clock
this morning for the purpose of indict
ing any persona who can be Identified as
members of tho Thursday night mob. All
of the machinery of the law will bo used
to secure evidence. Under the state law,
every citizen who has any knowledge
that may be of value to the grand Jury
is obligated to disclose It. Names of
grand Jury witnesses are not divulged
and no citizens need be deterred through
fear of publicity.
The penalty for rioting is not less than
twenty years In the penitentiary and
may be longer.
Sense of duty did not alone cause
Judge Wheeler to act so promptly. Pub
llo sentiment demanded it.
